Robert Mueller is scheduled to interview Jared Kushner & Hope Hicks in the next week. If they lie, they will be charged with “lying to federal officials”, if they tell the truth, Trump is DONE!
If we can forget about the continuing absurdity of Roy Moore, this week’s distractions so far are about ungrateful PoC and big game trophies, so you won’t pay attention to GOP legislation giving tax cuts to the rich plus Jared Kushner and Hope Hicks talking to Mueller.
Trump says he should have left 3 U.S. citizens in jail in China because the father of one said something critical of him. https://t.co/sUqMf12c5i
Dear @realDonaldTrump: As public servants, we help people because it is the right thing to do, not because we want to be praised for it. Also, the US President should never wish for Americans to be locked up in a foreign jail. https://t.co/nKPqotDUC2
“I should have left them in jail!” This is the man who pardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio. I bet Sheriff Joe’s thank you to POTUS was really something. https://t.co/rlPwRcQjbn
Among the swing voters most critical to his viability,Donald Trump isn’t just vulnerable, he’s harming himself. Even as Wall Street reaches new highs in profitability and Trump endlessly brags about his stock-market numbers, these voters aren’t seeing the improvement in their own lives. And, most worryingly for Trump and Republicans, the president’s outlandish statements cause the voters we spoke with to believe that he’s focused more on his own petty dramas than on improving their families’ lives.
Imagine being a teenager asked out by the District Attorney, he takes you behind a dumpster in his car, fondles you, and then says if you tell anyone he will ruin your familyâÂÂs life…
Stop wondering why it takes 40 years for victims to tell their story.
BREAKING: @MLevineReports: Special Counsel Mueller’s team investigating whether Trump sought to obstruct a federal inquiry into connections between his presidential campaign & Russian operatives has now directed the DOJ to turn over a broad array of docs https://t.co/dR0qvK7EAx
In particular, Mueller’s investigators are keen to obtain emails related to the firing ofFBIDirectorJames Comeyand the earlier decision of Attorney GeneralJeff Sessionsto recuse himself from the entire matter, according to a source who has not seen the specific request but was told about it.
Issued within the past month, the directive marks the special counsel’s first records request to the Justice Department, and it means Mueller is now demanding documents from the department overseeing his investigation.
[…]
Mueller’s investigators now seek not only communications between Justice Department officials themselves, but also any communications with White House counterparts, the source said. Before this request, investigators asked former senior Justice Department officials for information from their time at the department, ABC News was told.
The latest move suggests the Special Counsel is still actively digging into, among other matters, whether Trump or any other administration official improperly tried to influence an ongoing investigation.
